ALF. Lows genial countenance still
illumines the depot news stand.
THREE HUNDRED and ninety-seven
passengers came in on the Union Paci-
nc this morning; forty-one on the Cen
trail Pacific.
OGDEN's GAS Works will soon be On
established fact. They will be pushed
to completion ere long, as work is to be
resumed Immediately.
THANKSGIVING TURKEYS and geese
have arrived. Turkeys bring 81 80
each, or rather people wanting them
have to pay that amount for them.
"JACK FROST" gives specimens of his
power every night, and the boys have
some hope now that SEATING will be in
augurated by Thanksgiving Day.
GENTS TOP coats and ladies' winter
wraps have at last been pulled out of
their summer retirement, a cold snap"
having set in; no rain, however, as yet.
COUNTRY FOLKS in the city just now
are more plentiful than mice. They
seem to De we'll supplied gith ducats
too, judging from the heavy purchases
they make at the stores.
JA1LoR NJ. F. BROWN makes good use
oil his feminine prisoners by putting
them to work securing out his rooms.
This gives them an opportunity to taste
the sweets of honest la or.
The STREETS of Ogden, under the
supervision of Mr.. Supervisor Nye, are
well kept. Ogden has greatly improved
in this respect of late years, and she
p opposes to continue in the good work.
The DEPOT this morning was en-
liv ned by runaway of the team be-
longing to Mr.. Wiggans, the job wag
goner, but was happily caught by Mr..
John Newy before any damage was
done.
THE OGDEN boys are trying to ar
range a cricket match for Thanksgiv
| ing Day with the Wellsville club.
Rather late to play cricket, is it not,
| boys2 A good hearty football match
would be more in keeping with the time
of the year.
DE-. II. j. POWERS has been kept busy
lately attending to patients afflicted
| with typhoid fever, which may be said
TO have formed an epidemic. The doc
tor reports an abatement, however,
which gives US pleasure to announce.
He has four serious cases yet on his
hands.
ONE OF our contemporaries weekly
admonishes its readers to attend church
on the Sabbath. We are not going to
follow the example. as we think the
good people of this happy burg need no
reminder of that sort; and it might be
observed that we should take this advice
unto ourselves.
AGAIN, AT the corner of Fourth Street
and Main, an ancient specimen of
humanity has taken up a position wit
a galvanic battery, where one can be
electrified, galvanized, and polarized
for The small chage of nickel. Surely
Ogden's progress, scientifically, intel
lectually, and gaStfOnOmically, is ad-
vancing with giant stridesl
Our YOUTHFUL feminine klepto-
maniac, other wise termed shop litter"
evidently had a desire TO astonish the
young men of her native village with
the latest Ogden fashions. Her expert
ment in this direction, however. ended
rather unpleasantly. She was sentenced
to fifteen days hospitality OF the City
Jail, vi h the second count held over
until she shall have served out the first
term.
In THE case of @. P. Railway Com
pany against Andrew Oakson and others
"a case which involves the homes of
over forty persons in the vicinity of
Bear River City-the jury brought in
verdict of no cause of action. This is
mos. interesting case and has occupied
day, and is the longest case which has
been tried in the First District Court
for many terms past.
A CORRESPONDENT in Ogden's Morn
ing Daily, who crows under the name
of 'Cackler," when speaking of the new

THE UTAH Soap Co. have established

home industry in the northern districts.

products OF THIS concern, Whlcn are SAID
to be superior to the imported articles,

Office.
OUR VISIT to the depot yesterday
morning again wildly reminded us of
the absolute need of Ogden for conve-
nient depot buildings. The continuous
increase of passenger and freight traffic |
both local and through, makes this |
necessity more and more apparent. It |
is simply a disgrace that the railway |
companies are permitted to allow the |
present depot buildings to exist. Limb |
and life of intending travellers, as we'll |
as of those persons having business at |
the depot, are positively endangered,
and the result will sooner or later be |
disastrous.
Our CITY is evidently becoming of the |
